Nigeria Flooding: Suspend Campaigns, Peter Obi Tells Atiku, Tinubu, Others

The presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi, has called on his other counterparts in other parties to suspend their campaigns and come together with him to assist victims of floods nationwide.

Obi said this on Wednesday while addressing journalists after his visit to Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, at his Abuja private residence where he went to talk about modalities on his planned visit to flood sites in Benue and other states.

The former Anambra State governor is in the 2023 race for Aso Rock’s top job with Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria People’s Party, amongst others.

Obi added that he expected other presidential candidates to show concerns to the plight of victims of flooding, considering how millions were spent on nomination forms.
